Re: [ATM] Mel's Trilateral scope... question

[Guy Brandenburg <gfbrandenburg@yahoo.com>]

The center of gravity of a triangle is the point where
the 3 medians meet. A median connects any vertex
(corner) of a triangle with the midpoint of the
opposite side.
But I'm not sure this is the reason for the location
of  those things.
